STRIKER: Independent Beast Tamer

Wilderness:

”We need to get back and inform the leader,” The Captain thought.

Just as they were going backwards. They heard a few more flapping sounds coming from behind. Undoubtedly, there are more flying ant beasts present in this area.

Blood on Charles’ face was drained. The worst has happened to him. He is running without turning backwards.

As time passed, the backup team was able to escape from the hostile area. Charles was with them as well. For some reason, the flying ant beasts didn’t follow them.

They stayed in that area. It took them a few minutes to realise what was going on. The Captain of the backup team started to connect the dots.

The flying ant beasts are present in large numbers in that area. It was the exact same spot where the Sand Bloom Team had lost the connection.

In his mind, he was able to reach a terrible conclusion.

But he dared not tell others before reporting to Leader Gisela.

”Let’s go, ” he said to the others.

He contacted the Leader, Gisela, after reaching a better communication area. Then everyone resumed their journey.

Charles didn’t have any clue that he was exposed. He is simply following them. In his mind, he had assumed that Sinag, Ada and the newcomer were dead.

...

10th Zone, City A:

Auction House:

”55 Million!”

Finally, someone from the VIP section quoted the price.

Hearing that everyone was shocked. They turned towards the source of the voice. They heard a female voice from the 1st private room.

It’s a person from a big family. But they were unable to figure out her identity.

Jeremy raised his eyebrows in surprise. He found that the voice was young. He then glances at the other private rooms. But no one raised their voice after her.

Auctioneer Murray was stunned. Because the old man found out that the voice was a little familiar. It only happens when it’s the voice of a regular customer.

”Is there anyone willing to raise the price?” Murray asked.

But there was absolute silence. No one was increasing. The audience on the first floor was looking at the VIP section.

But no one is increasing the price. Most of the Beast Tamers were taken aback. But somewhere I understood that the female voice belongs to someone influential.

On the side of the Sun Wheel Organisation Team, Captain Tim was shocked. He was about to bid for it. But someone from the first private room bid it.

He immediately extinguished the thought of bidding. He doesn’t want to offend the person.

Murray then said,” The Earth Grade Method is going to be sold for 55 million once.”

”Going twice!”

”Going thrice!”

”Sold!”

”The Earth Grade Method now belongs to the guest from the 1st private room.”

Auctioneer Murray’s voice sounded.

Time passed,

The auction house continues to take place. Auctioneer Murray is working non-stop. The auction items are getting more costly.

Time passed,

Jeremy and the other members were watching the auction with a serious expression. The auction is nearing its final end.

Auctioneer Murray said,” We have reached the last three auction items.”

Cheers!

Hearing that audience on the first floor let out applause. This auction event was eye-opening for them.

The Auction House has shown rare items that can’t be bought from the outside. Most of them were bought by the VIPs.

”The next auction item is the egg of a lifeline beast,” Murray said.

Gasp!

Some took a sharp breath among the beast tamers. They have reached a final phase. The VIPs are here for the lifeline beast egg.

With this Lifeline beast egg, they can give it to their family member.

In the VIPs section, everyone straightened their backs. But their appearance was not visible to others. If others can look at their reaction, they can understand how excited they were.

Murray glanced at the VIP section before turning towards the audience.

He said,” It’s not an ordinary lifeline beast egg. It’s a Grade-7 Purple Lion King egg. It has a Grade-7 bloodline. It can become a Tier-7 lifeline beast without any trouble.”

Gasp!

This time the auctioneer’s words shocked everyone to the core. It’s not easy to get the egg of a king-type lifeline or a regular beast.

Either the egg has been obtained from the Tier-7 Beast Tamer’s Purple King Lifeline beast, or it was obtained from the wilderness regular beasts.

It’s hard to find the populace and the habitat of the regular beasts. After the mutation of the world, the corrupted beasts are trying to take over the land.

Whereas the regular wilderness beasts have migrated.

That’s why the beast tamers were in shock. In either of the cases, it must not be easy for the auction house to get its hands on the lifeline beast egg.

The Purple Lion King is known for its lightning attack. Whoever gets it will become a powerhouse in future.

Auctioneer Murray gave a pause after announcing it. He is looking at the reaction of everyone. He thinks it will take time for everyone to settle down.

Jeremy Night sighs inwardly. He knows the values of the Grade-7 Bloodline. The evolution of the Beast Tamer depends upon the lifeline beast.

He thinks even if some average talent gets bonded with the egg of the purple king Lifeline beast. He will reach at least Tier-5 in his life. If there are chances, he could even achieve a further breakthrough.

”It’s a Purple Lion King’s egg,” Sinag said with envy.

”It belongs to the big family. We can only appreciate it from here,” Ada uttered.

Hearing that, Jeremy Night sighed inwardly. From their conversation, he can understand that they were not from a big family either.

Amelia, Florence and Ruby commented one after another. Everyone was quite envious and shocked by what was taking place here.

On the other hand, the male members were no different. Fredric had a plan to buy at least one of the auction items. But from the first auction item, he didn’t have any chance.
